/RAPT/ General - Strike a pose! edition (seriously these figures have a wide stance).Welcome to the RAPT general.This general is mainly for these franchises. You can talk about modern lines (except for NECA), but the main focus is on the older vintage stuff from Kenner, Toy Island, etc.Discussion of the films and other media is also welcome.Discussion of other similar films and toylines like Rambo, Last Action Hero, Congo, Demolition Man, even Waterworld, is cool. Especially if it pertains to part swapping, customs, or features for wishful toylines you'd like to see.NECA posting is off-topic, and should be ignored.
>>11817768It’s specifically Terminator 1, so yeah, no gun
>>11817802
>>11817802>>11817803I wish NECA did more cool variants like this
Post hopes and dreams
>>11817520I don't really remember this armor
>>11817677Default classes vagabond, you can also buy the armor but forgot where
>>11816666>>11816697amiami's selling him at 87. I'm not sure where that hashes out with shipping though.
>>11817519Please make a black knight, pretty please... Onions Knight is so mine though.
>>11817522I actually like that greataxe but it doesn't look like it exists ingame.
Was gonna say I feel bad for Knight Rider fans but its not like you have a lot to spend money on
>>11816026It’s too bad they can’t sell hoff on his own, I really don’t have space for more 1/12 vehicles
>>11817738If it's anything like their Ghost Driver, Blade, Mad Max, Fast & Furious, Dukes of Hazard car and it sells well enough, it might still happen.Personally I'm waiting for a 1:12 Airwolf, but I would settle for 1:12 Automan.
>>11817712Says the guy who assumed for no reason it wouldnt even have the flag
>>11816026does he comes with a cheezburger?
>>11817749Hopefully, but in the interviews I saw Ace seemed to say that he didn’t really even plan to get hoff’s likeness at first and it’s something the licensors wanted to include with the car to justify it as a different type of product from the TOMY 1/10 one. It may be totally out of his control.

>>11817200Hoping we get the armored version soon
>>11817625That IS on the way
>>11814717Nobody said it’s a problem, no need to get hostile.
>>11817722You claiming it's "milking" it is trying to say it's a problem. And you're a retard for it.
>>11817770Hey mods, we got off topic shit
So I usually collect Mafex, SHF, Figma, Storm Arena, SexyIce etc, super-articulated figures of (mostly) known IPs. Now I saw this guy and he’s kinda … neat? Is this MotU style just comfy (never had any attachment to MotU) or is it just another step in my autism journey? Anyone else collects those or similar? Only thing stopping me from getting him is that he only appears to be in a 4-pack and being a eurofag, it would cost me about 230 USD
>>11802993Not OP but that sucks, right now a similar company is Sexyice, the few figures they have skyrocket in price really fast. Unkval Eliminator was released one year ago and he costs no less than $500 at best right now.
>>11802993Ah, you mean the availability is ass. Yeah, I guess the small studios can’t produce much / keep a lot of stock>>11803014I only started collecting like two years ago, Metroid is one of my favorite things ever. picrel isn’t even possible to find anymore, last mention of it was a few years ago sold for 800+. I love the Figmas (which I also overpaid for, now that they were reissued) but I want this so bad
>>11800996Neat I backed this on kickstarter a few years back, mines like a neon almost clear green.Also have the neon pink werewolf from his first kickstarter
>>11803432Alright here's the creators website ophttps://rocomtoys.com
him head look like godzilla with ape jaw
The best kind of G1. Old >>11764830
>>11816898>>11816901I'm surprised he doesn't realize that a finished render is barely step zero for making a toy, and in 3P that means several years before release even for experienced brands with established factories and supply chains. Even a finished transforming 3D print still means jack shit when injection molds require tolerances and limitations that 3D prints don't have to take into account. Also balljoint sockets straight ontop of tampographed carbon fiber lmao.
>>11817116I do think he’s been testing his design with 3D prints along the way, but didn’t want to reveal it until its final. But yeah, there are so many things that can still go wrong. I remember several stories of companies allegedly being sabotaged by factories intentionally bugging up production (I think the XTB guy was said to be behind it?)
>>11816169Congrats. Big 3P Bay figs have a tendency to have weak legs sadly. Just got my T-10 Starscream and while he does have ratchets and can stand on his own, the balance isn't all that apt if he's on chicken legs mode.
>>11815247>>11816879Honestly more interested in how much they'll do the DOTM with jetwings if they ever decide to do it or if I'll have to count on third party add-ons
>>11817635AFAIK Jetwing, Jetpowered and the trailer are going to be partsform upgrade kits on MM while UT is going to have a transforming Jetfire and Trailer.

>>11815210Happened to me as well, so annoying.>>11815222Some of these sites are kind of sketchy leaving orders open even though they can't guarantee inventory. In the case of Hobby Genki, they updated Izutsumi's page early March saying new orders from this point would not get the bonus (didn't lower the price of course). Except this was not accurate because I ordered in December and still didn't get it.
>>11815691>Except this was not accurate because I ordered in December and still didn't get it.can confirm I did the same, well last time I'm preordering anything from them
>>11815770well shit I still have some titans and batman beyond pre ordered from them from forever ago... maybe I should get them shipped
https://youtu.be/Yxpjr5xjr64Looks pretty good, other than the scale and maybe the upward head range.
Can the effect piece on Garou come off the hands? I see it can turn so you can reposition it.
I got the Figuarts Frieren today from a local shop and honestly I'm not sure why she got so much hate? She looks pretty spot-on to the character, her faces are great, she's nicely poseable and well built (and, heh heh, "well built"). Really want Fern now.Any other figures that get a lot of shit that don't deserve it?
>>11814728this figure isnt "overhated"its just that one retarded anti-SHF spammer that wont shut up about anything SHF. now that figma's is out, it's clear that this was the better figure
>>11815726Marvel does this anime? That's wild man. I've never seen it myself but I guess you must be right and this is a marvel owned and produced anime.
>>11816751don't see why people should avoid it just because the movie was bad. You can hate the movie, but can own the polar opposite great figure. No need to worry about giving Disney money neither since it flopped anyway, and all its other toys became Ollie's fodder
>>11817162It's pretty simple to understand, for some people myself included having a figure on display that reminds you of a character/movie you hate isn't something we care about no matter how good the figure is. I want good figures of characters I like, as that makes them way more enjoyable and engaging than "random figure that's pretty good but I hate the source/character". And luckily enough there's plenty of them out there. I already own hundreds of toys without the need to buy characters I dislike.
>>11817089Yeah, I remember the consensus broadly being: "it's alright", "it's serviceable", and only one person tried to astroturf that it was universally hated by dredging up his own earlier shitposts from the archive and making a collage out of them.Of course it gets way better with soft goods, but that's just the nature of the beast. The alternative, as people have seen, is to make permanently windy and strange looking skirts and disjointed mantles on obvious joints.
>mogs hasbro's sculpt to oblivion>far cheaper to acquire>aliexpress 75% discounts, free shipping>doesn't get morphed in it's own packagingdo people still buy blacked series dogshit ?it's over for hasbro when blokees comes out with clones
>>11817386>Nobody WANTS to argue with you>still arguing with me aren't you embarassed about how obvious your lies are? I mean, here you are, dredging shit up from ancient threads and you can't even talk about the topic, because you're a butthurt no-toys.>Every single Joe thread you go on the same rant about how Classified is totally dying for real this timeBhaijaan, you're proving what a giant newfag you are, because i've been going to the Joe threads since before the Generals existed. The GI Joe threads were the most adult, respectable, knowledgeable threads on /toy/ until your poorass started showing up a few years ago. And now the threads are full of your samefagging, constantly lying, so you can endlessly argue.And now you're in this thread, making shit up to endlessly argue. everyone here has seen my photos for over 20 years, frequently holding current toys up with my hands, yet you want to pretend ive never proven anything.> you're colourblind.NO U! Even if i was colorblind, you can't fake that these photos prove me right that Joytoy's has fucked up the paints so badly. Biege blinds shouldn't be blending in with what should be golden armor, yet you need to pretend to be colourblind for as long as these toys were in stock. its fanbase wasn't dumb enough to put up with this overpriced bullshit and the WH40k thread is now abandoned.Like OP and other posters in this thread, it's very hard to distinguish desperate fanboys from company shills when you pretend this shit isn't noticeable.
>>11817366just post toys retard
>>11814441the one on the left kinda looks like a redneck woman with fetal alcohol syndrome

>>11817428>until your poorass started showing up a few years ago. And now the threads are full of your samefagging, constantly lying, so you can endlessly argue.I only recently got into G.I. Joe, for sure...but when I started posting in the threads you'd been bitching about Classified for a while already, several years according to the regulars.>everyone here has seen my photos for over 20 years, frequently holding current toys up with my hands, yet you want to pretend ive never proven anything.Then it shouldn't be hard to post one of those photos? Unless you're so scared of some random anon that you can't?>Even if i was colorblind, you can't fake that these photos prove me right that Joytoy's has fucked up the paints so badly.I can't fake it because they DON'T prove you right. They're gold. Not C-3PO chrome but definitely gold. So congratulations on proving my point I guess.Now post your hand, you miserable illiterate faggot.
saar you must immediately purchase why do you fucking hate india saar is good spiderman i promise fucking

Hi all!! Skate edition was a success, let's keep it up! Let's waste some pictures!This time around gather your 4 horsemen of the apocalypse and take a shot. If you dont have mounts that alright, groupshots always welcome, or you could get creative?Memorable Mentions:CORONA Amazon delivery crew, I really enjoyed that picture. Are those goblins? Orcs? RGB annon, always love seeing what new goodie you got, that robot and the upgraded panel light was awesome. Radditz I mean Turles annon great to see you got Doppo, I think we all liked how his pants magically ddissappear. Extreme dino! Don't need to say anything else, you know who you are. Alf annon always up to something, this time he had robo bodyguards. Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>11817056I just saw these the other day. They look great but god, I wish they had some alt-heads for a "NOT constantly pissed off" look.
>>11817071yeah the body looks great but the heads are very stylized, I prefer more realistic figures personally. people love that though (like Mythic Legions)
>>11813596>>11812965Bought this Raptor. Thanks guys.
I was really impressed with the Joy Toy robo tmnt figures so I decided to order some more of their stuff.An April because she's cute, and this Dark Source mech. It was time consuming but rewarding to put together, had like 50 parts.
Houses a little 1:25 guy too.
It was significantly cheaper than the going rate but still more expensive than retail and definitely not a $25 eBay reproI'm paranoid because of the (backwards?) button and the hair has no silvery sheen but it could very well be a bad picturedo I request a refund or let it ride
>>11806224Nai dess.
>>11806224Look for the trans rights flag, if it's there it's a genuine Touhou product.
>>11808297The amiami fumos arent expensive so temper expectations https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=GOODS-04499121
>>11816354yeah but they are hardly ever in stock and with shipping and taxes, they still run nearly $70$100 isn't bad from the scalpers
>>11806240Can confirm legit.I see that little slip of paper and tin badge every time I buy a real fumo. Design matches the Nazrin second edition to a tee. No obvious defects. There should be a rectangle butt tag too.Enjoy your fumo anon, she will be cheesed to meet you!t. own more than ten fumos because I’m autistic
I have roughly 110 figures rn
>>11814761I've probably added 110 figures in the past 18 months - not that I am proud of that. I donated a bunch, about 20, to a thrift store and those were dirt cheap. And I'm dumping about 25 of these right now and hopefully another 20-50 more. That all said, there is stuff I'd like to add. I bought a dinosaur at a Ross clearance store but I might buy a bigger one if I see a good one on clearance. There's probably about 5-6 figures I keep an eye out for but I actually have good impulse control on not being an idiot on wasting money.I'm either going to totally sell all the LEGO I own, which is not a lot OR get more into the block KO LEGO shit from China and get rid of most of the plastic articulating action figures. I've got to give that some thought. But I don't want to DISPLAY LEGO and since I live alone, I wonder if it's the right thing to move to. I might as well start doing shit like cross-words then.
>>11814813gonna second this one. I have a couple sonic figs but they're super out of scale and arent the game designs. id really love a 4 inch sonic that had good articulation but they just dont exist. >>11816105this except id have enough room for another display if i sold my model kit backlog.
>>11816105>At this point im collecting aound 20 IPsI have ONE main IP and I am going to streamline in and dump a lot of other things. I've added way more Marble and now Joe's but most of the Joe's are to customize into muggers and street scenes, or to be say military MPs/doomsday preppers or snipers - all for DIOS with the capeshit figures I've been collecting - instead of stupidly lining them in teams, I'm going to have say Spider-Man beat up five Joe muggers trying to rob some dude or dudette civilian. Or have five homeless army vet Joe figures rob a bank full of civilians and a female teller and Nightwing and Red Hood need to intervene.>I keep adding moreThis - but one offs. I got a Luffy Netflix for $5 at Target, the one who stretches, but I don't plan to get more - not even if they were also $5 each. I got some 2"/3.5" Bert, Ernie and Snoopy, Charlie Brown Super7 at Ross for $3.99. I will probably make a shelf display of just interesting random things that change regularly. tl;dr PICREL but far less lame because I open shit and don't buy obvious junk
>>11814761Probably the Patriot Studios Alcina Dimitrescu. I had a depost in on one, but when in-hand pics started cropping up I was seeing some wonky eyes, and I let the preorder go. Kind of regret it now.
>>11814761Mafex dkr superman so goated Also Evangelion Unit-00 Kai Soul SPEC XS-09 I have asuka & shinji but not rei & she’s my favorite.
>Finally, a good Goliath figure that can share shelf space with other figures.>it's 1/6 scale>comes with all these pointless accessories and a statue that also couldve been a separate figure which only raises the price furtherBeing a Gargoyles fan sucks
>>11813703Terrible comparison. it still comes with an articulated Rush. Bass got articulated Treble too. Also Metool's helmet is removable so you can pretend its defending.
>>11813703Terrible comparison. That's thing:Japan which means anything it does is okay. We're talking about thing, which means anything it does is evil and bad.
>>11812793>>11812789I agree whining over too many accessories as a general rule is retarded, but I also can't stand pointless accessories that don't need to exist. Like his little broken medallion and unbroken medallion. How about make one... That can break apart? Hold it together with some fucking magnets. It's a toy, it should have cool features like this. Also 10 barely different hands. I am so sick of this trend. Make accessories that fit into a universal hand. If a wrench's handle is a little thicker than normal and a guns grip is a little skinnier than normal, great. Who cares. Make them both fit in one hand. It's a little different for a character like Spider-Man where you should WANT to have fists and web shooting hands and a splayed wall crawling hand, but every character under the sun does not need a dozen hand options. Make like 2, MAYBE 3 sets that all are for dramatically different things.
>>11814591>Also 10 barely different hands.According to the product description, it only comes with 4 sets of hands. I think they repeated the open set that are already on the figure. Fists, weapon gripping, and open handed/clawing are all pretty much essential. The other set seem to be for holding the Phoenix Gate, so they are kind of superfluous.
>>11812789I do wish the dog creature was articulated. This world needs more articulated non-humanoid monster figures
>Yeah, I trade children's toys like stocks. Toys are my currency. Gotta buy and sell. Get 'em graded. Flipping. Muh value. Market speculation.Give me one (1) reason why these people shouldn't be put to death.
Not their fault the value of the dollar is collapsing, is it?
>>11808629I think they're better now, they actually pay me out when someone sends me a bullshit return
>>11802929Depends on the area. In Texas they are indeed mehheekins but when I lived deeper in the South there were a lot of schlubby black/white nerds that were camping in front of Best Buy waiting for the newest Nintendo whatever
Soon
